  Always dreamed of owning a Maxima and my dreams came true in 99. Purchased a 98 GXE and have since added a spoiler which really increased the looks. Great car, runs like a top with 93K miles on it and going strong.

  Great and reliable - 1998 Nissan Maxima
  By reggaedg - July 26 - 5:25 am

  Got this car from a friend 18 months ago, car was sitting for a year. This car has 268,000 miles on it and you could walk by it and not know that the engine was running. Installed new brakes and rotors and a paint job. Car now looks and run like new. Love the car, very reliable and the gas mileage is excellent for a 6 cylinder. Step on the gas and this car will launch you in a new dimension. The ride is tight, well it is a 4 door sport car after all. This car is fun to drive and if you plan to lend it to someone be certain to advise them on the quick throttle response. They could get a whiplash on take off.

  I Love This Car - 1998 Nissan Maxima
  By Happy Maxima Driver - June 21 - 2:00 am

  I bought this car as certified preowned. Excellent power. Had absolutely no mechanical problems. Having the moonroof open and the windows down makes it almost as fun as a convertible but without the higher insurance. Really fun and comfortable to drive. Leather interior with wood accents looks really nice. Especially with seat warmers for winter. All that and it has dual front/side airbags and a four star crash test rating. Couldnt find a better car.

  I liked my first Maxima so much that I bought another. I am about to buy my third. I bought one in 1996, and another in 1998.

  Exceptional Car - 1998 Nissan Maxima
  By Kevin - May 21 - 8:06 pm

  This is the most remarkable car I have owned in the past 30 years. I bought used in 2001 with 40K on the clock. Since then I have put 195K more miles on it without any major repairs. The engine and tranny continue to purr. Only had to replace the wearable parts (brakes and oil changes). Finally replaced the exhaust for the first time at 190K. Needed an alternator at 180K.

  Awesome Car All Around - 1998 Nissan Maxima
  By love my maxima! - March 22 - 10:00 am

  Ive had this baby 5 years and never a problem. The fit and feel are wonderful. Ever try to find a car that DOESNT have annoying features? This is it. Everything is well designed and thoughtfully placed. It gives a smooth and QUIET ride.
